The desperate Bulldogs are considering making a play to sign prodigal son Sonny Bill Williams for 2020.

Williams, aged 33, began his league career with the Bulldogs way back in 2004 and retains close ties with the club.

Only last week, he was set to present the players with their jumpers for round one before the massacre in Christchurch left him too distraught to perform the task.


The Bulldogs are desperate for a quick fix after performing poorly last season and then starting this year with a massive defeat at the hands of the Warriors.

The club is likely to deny the story, but Wide World Of Sports has heard that informal talks have already begun with the code-hopping star.


SBW’s influential manager Khoder Nasser prefers the brilliant athlete remain in rugby union, where he plays for the Auckland Blues, but Williams is believed to be tempted by the prospect of returning ‘home’ and helping his struggling club.

Williams played five seasons with the Bulldogs from 2004 to 2008 before helping the Roosters to the premiership in 2013.

He has also dabbled in boxing and despite approaching his mid-30s, remains in peak physical condition.

meh.... wonder if the nrl would allow us to sign him on a 1 year "vanilla" contract... those special conditions are probably only applicable to the roosters though.

11. CHN
12. SBW
13. Jackson
Would only take him for a 1yr deal and make that clear and then piss him off... no point having him on the books and umming and ahhing wether to play on a 2nd season when so much quality is off contract for the 2021 season.

I’d live with it, plus I think he’d be an alright senior role model for younger players and want people to come to the club

It's a nice thought and would ruffle some feathers but i can't envision it happening. We also don't need anymore backrowers, ever.

Sbw would be ok for a decent/ not ridiculous wage. Still would a good 9 2 centres and a prop.
